PASSED! CO was very nice but asked tough questions. I have no doubt that had i not been here, it would have been a denial as he was ALOT more interested in interviewing me than my fiancee. Interview was about 25 minutes long... about 10 minutes quizzing my fiancee and about 15 minutes on me alone. Thanks for all the encouragement from everybody here...and thanks for the PM Ken.

Strange how consulates operate differently. At the one in Guangzhou, China they don't even let the petitioner on the same floor of the building for the interview.

Will you post the questions they asked you two in a consulate review?

Mav- CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I'm so happy for you! Glad that you were there with her!

Ashen-Good luck tomorrow!!!!! You'll do wonderfully!

[Starlight95 1]

CONGRATS MAV!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alll the best Ashen on your interview tomorrow. I am sure you will pass it with flying colors.

I am so bummed out about Sara's SO interview.

I am sure once she submits it will be all fine, but was hoping she did not have to go through it again.

Now I am losing hope.

[Starlight95 1]

I will just go crazy if we get an RFE again or the 221g (whatever they call it). This process has caused me enough grief. For once they should not give us a hard time.

[Starlight95 1]

EOTR- Great update! All of us are still surving

I hope Star will get a

Got our subject access today! It had what we needed on it...waaaaaaaahoooooooo!! Nigel's got the courier booked for Monday AM...! :dance: :dance:

I was just checking up to see if Nigel got the info on the subject access report. I see he did. That's great. I'm glad I was wrong! We just got case complete at the NVC and I had my medical on tuesday so just waiting for an interview date.

Ashen did pass, by the way.

I'm flying out Tuesday.

If I actually had faith in the Canadian mail system I would have bought my ticket on Wednesday, but because I didn't, they went up to 1300 dollars.

Sooo, yeah. I'm not paying that.

Maverick -- That sounds similar to my interview, except the CO didn't ask Leidys a single question. She just stood beside me, wondering what we were speaking about in English. Because this was my 2nd K-1, I know we would have been denied, or at least my presence would have been requested.

About tough questions, the CO asked me if I was from "the islands" because of my accent. I told him, "No, I was born in Southern California." During these interviews, you just have to know your history well, and not lie about a single thing. They're looking at your eyes and body language the entire time.
